Every great athlete, coach, politician, painter, porn star, or professional wrestler knows they have a shelf life. Just ask Ric Flair or Hulk Hogan. They have a window of opportunity in which they can be successful until it is their turn to step out of the spotlight and retire. Bobby Bowden is the proverbial 13 year old can of peas in the back of your pantry. He has been around for a long, long time. He became the head coach of Florida State in 1976 following a stint with the West Virginia Mountaineers Thirty years of coaching the same school is an accomplishment in this day and age. Bear Bryant’s tenure at Alabama surpassed Bowden’s at Florida State but you have to wonder if even Bear could have handled the constant media scrutiny in the ESPN era that guys like Bowden and Joe Paterno must go through. I probably would have died after heart-attack #14 if I had to deal with the clowns that these men have had to deal with day after day for so long.
Reporter: Coach Bowden, I know you have a winning percentage of nearly .800 but don’t you think these three losses this year mean that you are a terrible, decrepit old coach?
Coach Bowden: Well, NO, to answer your question Mr. Douchebag. I think I am a great coach and no one seemed to mind last year when I brought in 12 million dollars for the University for getting us to the Orange Bowl.
Anyone who thinks Florida State’s problems can be attributed to Bowden is a clown. Have you seen him on the field? Does he even have a headset on? What could he be possibly be doing without a headset? He does the same thing Joe Paterno does… and he does it better than JoePa. He brings talent to FSU, year after year. The Seminoles have had to play 17 true freshmen this year. Florida State only had 31 total recruits last year and over half of them have played this year. A similar situation befell Lloyd Carr last year at Michigan and sure enough the boosters and students were out in force. Those same losers are silent this year as Michigan is 8-0. It is very possible that the same success will reach FSU next year when these young players who now have game experience deliver on their potential. Then what will those absolute clowns that host www.retirecoachbowden.com do?
In my America, anyone, and I mean anyone, who hosts a site like www.retirecoachbowden.com, would be incarcerated. The individuals that put together sites like this are despicable. Bowden has 363 wins, more than any other coach in the history of the college game. He continues to recruit top talent and, up until a slight downturn this year, he has coached his teams to championship levels. College football fans may be the dumbest group of people in all of sports. I honestly believe that these losers think that no team but their own is actually trying to win games. “Wow, Michigan lost three games this year, looks like its time to fire Lloyd,” these idiots say. Carr, like Bowden, is still among the most successful coaches and recruiters in the history of the game. Check his winning percentage (.750) against the great coaches off all-time and you will see that he compares favorably. But of course, you have a bunch of losers who see that neither Michigan nor Florida State has won a national championship in five years and all of the sudden the coaches are idiots. Well let me tell you something, you pizza-eating, beer-bonging, 2.0-GPA college student who knows the grandmother’s name and inseam of every player: You are a loser, and maybe the worst kind of loser because you think you are smart. Do yourself a favor. Go run a couple miles, work the beer gut off, and go to class on Monday because your self-perceived intelligence will get you about as far as the kitchen of the burrito joint that you eat at six days a week, you slob.

Bobby Bowden is a quite interesting post but quite difficult to understand for me .
